The Executive Committee of the American Anti-Slavery Society decided against complying with the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society's request to change the date of the annual meeting. The British abolitionists want at least some of the delegates to the World's Anti-Slavery Convention to arrive in London two weeks before the start of the Convention
Enclosed is a copy of an article about American abolitionists, which is to be printed in the Eclectic Review. The article is "not quite consistent with the truth." The doctrines of non-resistance "are very imperfectly understood in this country." An outline of the principles of the English peace advocates is given. The British & Foreign Anti-Slavery Society "refused even to hear a letter addressed to them" on the subject of women's rights. The author suggests that William Lloyd Garrison write an article on non-resistance for a British periodical. He believes that James Gillespie Birney wrote the enclosed article
